i never said anything about loaded.

i am also going off of how this law works in ohio. i just realized i forgot to mention that originally. but the way i understand it is as long as the paperwork for the weapon is in order, and it is a legal gun, as long as you arent a criminal (have a record) you can brandish a gun, unloaded. to carry it (under a jacket, pocket, rib holster) you need a carry permit. as far as owning and walking around with one there isnt a law against it.

but lets say there is a law against it in NY state? is the punishment an 8 hour stay in a holding cell? thats kinda weird…if anything i think it is a matter of clearing it with authorities because even though i think it is legal…it is unusual enough to warrant a detailed investigation.

now if you want to get into technicalities about what you are required by law to do if you are being approaced and questioned by a cop…thats a dif story. i am not an expert but from what i understand there is very little you are REQUIRED to do during general questioning. oh and again this is in ohio…ny may be different but i dont think it is by much if any
